We got up Thursday morning and got ready to head out to Bonnie Springs Ranch. This place is so much fun. It’s out just past Red Rock Canyon. We took a wrong turn at one point and ended up near a park with these donkey’s roaming around. Kelly, Katie and Julie got out of the car and they came over and we took a bunch of pictures. A little girl nearby warned us that they were wild and they do bite but they all seemed pretty calm around us. There was a little one that must’ve been a baby. That one came over to me and I was petting it for a bit. We got back in the car and got back on track and headed to Bonnie Springs. We got there about an hour before the next Melodrama show so we headed over to the petting zoo and played with the deer and donkeys and sheep over there for a bit. Then we headed into the village and checked out a couple of the shops. We also stopped at the shooting gallery and tried that. I did alright, Katie did pretty good! We headed to the saloon and grabbed a frosty cold beverage and watched the melodrama. The fun part is that there is a guy dressed as a female like they used to do way back when. It’s a funny sketch with plenty of cheesy jokes. Just the way the Halligan’s like it! Next up was the Public Hanging in the square. The funny thing was Kelly got picked out of the crowd to pull the lever, which I got to do the first time I was there too! It was fun and we got some pics with the guys who work there. After the shows we headed back over to the little restaurant there and had some mid afternoon lunch. We headed back to the city after that and drove by Red Rock Canyon but couldn’t see too much from the road. We then headed up to the Planet Hollywood resort and the Miracle Mile Shops. They have a Bakers shoe store there which we no longer have in Rochester and I found a great pair of shoes for the club that night. Kelly tried a few things on but didn’t really like anything so she opted for an aqua massage instead. We headed back to the resort. I went next door to the deli and got some pizza for dinner. Then Kelly and I got ready for our VIP night out. It was awesome. We went up to the line at the Haze Nightclub at the Aria resort and gave our names. We were right on the list and went right through while other people were waiting in line still. Not sure how exactly that happened but it was awesome! We got three free drink tickets, which we were thankful for after we found out that drinks are $14 a piece just for well drinks!! This place looked like it was straight out of a movie and the DJ was great! It’s like they know any variety of people could be there. The song selection was Katy Perry to Jay-Z to Kid Rock to Beyonce to Guns and Roses. It was just like my iPod!! We had so much fun dancing. We met some people from Brazil that seemed cool. We left around 1:00 am or so and headed back to the resort and promptly passed out from the long day!!
